Our Henwoods on "Find My Past"

I just found Queenie Dorothy Disney on the 1911 census at age 11 in Romford, Essex, England
Charles Henwood b: 1854, widower, the father of Charles Earnest, was on the 1911 census at age 57 in Lower Froyle, Alton, Hampshire with his son Frederick, age 11, but son Charles Earnest was not with them.  Older Charles and son were living with Widow Mould, 58 and her granddaughter, age 13.  Charles was boarding there and listed as domestic gardener.  This is no doubt where Charles Earnest got his gardening from, but where was he? 

The mystery is that I found this Charles on the 1891 census as a single man age 37 and general servant on Hussey's Road, Froyle, Hartley , England living with the Morse family of Raymond A 48 and Silina 37.  .  It's the right place, but single?  His wife didn't die till 1906.
